Turning off the print dialogue box
Turning off the print dialogue box
(OP)
How do I turn off the print dialogue box and edit print settings from the command line?
I wish to do this to set-up a button on my toolbar to print the current drawing as per previous plot, then save, change the settings back to dialogue box printing and close the current drawing.

Exxit was close.
In 2009, from the Command Line type "-plot" (no underscore).

I wish to use the command line to perform the dialogue box function "Page Setup > Name > <Previous plot>" leaving all other settings as per the previous plot whatever they may have been.
But the "-plot" command just gives me the option to select a printer and change its setting .... no previous plot option.
Is there a simple way of doing this?
